About the Founder

As French.US enters its next chapter, founder Julie Skinner is returning to the company's original vision: discovering exceptional French artisans, heritage manufacturers, and design houses that are rarely available in the United States, and introducing them to an American audience. We are proud to offer a personalized White-Glove Design Service, working closely with homeowners, interior designers, architects, and design professionals to create beautifully curated spaces. From selecting the perfect wallpapers, fabrics, furnishings, and decorative finishes to calculating precise measurements, determining ordering quantities, and providing expert design guidance, we make every project seamless from concept to installation. We are excited to welcome extraordinary new partnerships, including Ananbô, the original designers for Waterworks, Volevatch, and the beautiful collaborations between Ressource Peintures, Antoinette Poisson, and Ananbô. We are also delighted to be restocking the beloved French linen collection, Linge Particulier, bringing back one of our clients' most requested textile lines. By popular demand, many of our cherished French gourmet products will also be returning, alongside a carefully curated selection of additional French heritage brands that will be introduced in the coming months. With direct relationships with many of France's most celebrated artisans and heritage manufacturers, we make sourcing exceptional French design effortless for our clients. Our collection will continue to evolve as we seek out France's finest makers, offering timeless products, exclusive collaborations, and authentic craftsmanship that celebrate the French art of living.
